“I was nervous about going away because I have never left my dog for someone else to watch, especially for a week. Lorrie did a great job watching my pup and sending updates. I could tell he was well cared for and was happy with the experience”
“Ken is amazing with our Frenchie! Frankie ran to the car as fast as he could when we packed him up to go to Ken’s house. He came home looking healthy and very well taken care of. We highly recommend him but hope he doesn’t book up too much because we will definitely be back”
“Christen was awesome with our dog Marty. Very thoughtful and communicative. I know Marty had a great week while staying there. I would gladly ask Christen to help with Marty in the future.”
“Thank you Bob for taking such good care of Beauty. The walks, the fresh water made me feel secure. Great understanding of dogs. Really appreciate that. She was happy for the rest of the day.”
“Deena provides a warm and friendly environment with a huge enclosed yard perfect for pups of all kinds. She sent us pics at least once a day and kept us well informed about how our pup was doing. This was our first time using Deena and we will do so again!”
“Rick was great with our dog, Leo! He had an overnight stay and by the time we got him back the next day he was exhausted cause of all the fun he had running around on the farm! Rick was great with providing updates, I highly recommend!”
“I’m speechless! Shelleen is a godsend! I recently moved to the area and was nervous about trying a new sitter but she has exceeded all my expectations and my anxious dog was very comfortable and happy staying with her. I received lots of updates and advice and can’t wait to use her services again! Very professional, patient and accommodating to our needs.”
“We couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter. Fatima was patient, caring and reliable. We received updates regularly, giving us peace of mind while we were away that our dog was well cared for. Would definitely use her again!”
“Maui had the absolute best time with JoEllen and her family! JoEllen sent so many photos and videos, which I absolutely loved! Maui had the best time! He loved going for the long walk on the beach and from all photos, I can tell he was having a blast playing in JoEllen's backyard! Maui will definitely be visiting again!”
“Jamie took very good care of my senior dog Teddy in her lovely home. Teddy being older cries and whines looking for his meals or just being unhappy away from his familiar home. Jamie made extra effort to keep him comfortable and kept in touch with me through texts and photos. Than you!!”
“Amazing! I was so nervous to leave my super-senior, but Mike put my fears to rest! My dog had an incredible time making some new friends, and I was quickly assured he was in great hands. So highly recommend Mike's Dog Hotel!”
“Julie was absolutely phenomenal! Upon my first meeting with her, she just made me feel so comfortable and confident with my choice in her. We have 2 Boston Terriers and, as terriers typically can be, they can be quite energetic. This didn’t deter Julie at all!! She welcomed them with open arms! Julie watched our boys for basically a week. She sent pictures (that were amazing, by the way) multiple times a day and checked in to give us updates so we knew they were both happy and well-loved all week. We will definitely be using Julie again! She’s so sweet, attentive, and knowledgeable!”
“I had a wonderful experience with this host! They are super nice, kind, and incredibly sweet. I can't thank them enough for taking such great care of GG. Getting photos of her every single day really put my mind at ease while I was away. It's obvious that GG had a fantastic time during her stay. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring pet sitter.”
“Amazing. We could not have found anyone better to take care of our dog while away. Megan and her husband were fantastic to work with, so easy with our schedule and gave our dog even more attention than we ever could! They sent me pictures everyday which was so comforting and when it came time to pick up my dog she wasnt even overly excited to see me- I think she would have preferred to stay with them longer :)”
“I can't recommend Victoria highly enough! From the very beginning, she was reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring. It was clear that my dog was treated like family, and I received regular updates and photos that gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. She went above and beyond to make sure my dog's routine was maintained and that all of their needs were met. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and dependable to care for your pet, I would absolutely recommend Victoria. I'll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Krystal was a wonderful caregiver to my 12.5yr old frenchie, Honey, who requires oral medication as well as eye drops. Krystal was very responsive during booking and during Honeys stay. Her dog Kilo is chill and he welcomed Honey to his pack for 5 days. I will certainly check with Krystal when Hobsy needs a place to stay.”

“Max was a great sitter for my cat Snow while I was on vacation. Upon meeting with a Meet and Greet, he was attentive to the needs and ensured questions he had were answered. Given my cat needed oral medication, he asked for a demonstration on how to give him the medication to give him in order to ensure he got it delivered correctly. He was punctual for all agreed on times to visit, friendly, and reached out with any questions as needed. I came home to a very happy cat and would not hesitate to rebook with Max again!”
“Kamryn is wonderful! Highly recommend. She was prompt, polite and attentive. She provided daily updates, pictures while we were away. She kept all 4 litter boxes clean and food bowls fresh. My two senior cats are not always easy to please, but she won them over! Will be booking her again for our next trip!”
About: Hi! I’m Abbey — a lifelong animal lover who grew up with three dogs of my own. I’ve also helped several families, neighbors, and friends with walks, feedings, and check-ins. I’m reliable, caring, and always make sure pets feel happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my routine!

I make sure pets get fresh water, food, walks, playtime, and plenty of affection. I treat every home with respect and every pet like my own.
“While my brother-in-law was in rehab, Christen took very good care of his cat. She was very responsible and accomodating, and fulfilled all our requests. I recommend her very highly.”
“Marie was an absolute profesional and made my wife and I at ease while we were out of town. It would usually take me a few times to trust someone with my elderly cat, but Marie made me comfortable right of the bat. I highly recommend her services and will definitely be using her again!”
“Sarah was very sweet with our girl. She was patient while she was scared and used all the tricks we told her to get her to warm up. She gave her a good amount of exercise and play time that I'm sure she snozzed the rest of her day away. Sarah sent us plenty of photos and updates while we were away bringing us great comfort that she was doing well”
“Frances did a fantastic job of caring for our cats while we were on vacation. With 3 Rescues inside and 2 TNR's outside, it's not easy to find someone to take that on. Everything went great and she kept us informed with texts & pics after each visit. She made our vacation so much more enjoyable.”
“She took amazing care of my Cookie! First time I left my cat with a pet sitter other than family and I would definitely use Olivia again! Very through daily updates and pictures was definitely a plus!”
“I hired Jennifer to do drop ins everyday for my cat for 10 days. I am naturally an anxious person and she was very understanding as I never left my cat for that long before. She fed him his wet food and treats , played with him , cleaned both his liter boxes, and gave him fresh water each day. She followed my instructions to a T regarding which lights to leave on and what doors to keep closed etc . Her personality made me feel very secure having her in my apartment. She is extremely reliable and always communicating promptly and clearly . She sent me photos each day and let me know how he was doing , he was a bit upset at first but then quickly warmed up to her. I would definitely recommend her services for cat drop ins and I hope if I ever need to hire someone again that she is available . It’s hard to find reliable , trustworthy, kind and caring people, but she is definitely all of those things ! Thanks again Jennifer !”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Fair Haven
About: I've had a love for dogs for as long as I can remember. In college, I fostered over 10 dogs and cats before they found their forever home. Recently, I raised and trained a dog of my own which taught me all the necessities of being a great dog mom:) My sweet Luna is a five-year-old border collie filled with lots of love for new people and furry friends. I am super eager to help whoever may need it! I'm working a remote job so my schedule is super flexible! I am able to take my breaks whenever I want and can most likely adhere to your schedule. I have the means of transportation to go to clients' homes as well as bring them to my pet-friendly apartment. I live by multiple parks within a 5-minute walk so I am able to spend lots of time outside. My number one priority is making you and your furry friend as happy as possible.
“Bella had a great time at Jamie's, running in her nice grassy backyard. I really appreciate that Jamie was able to watch Bella while we went to the beach, and was very flexible about the drop off and pickup. And cute photos and videos are great!”
About: I am a dog mom of 2 awesome dogs. I had a dog that passed away last year who was paralyzed and had required special care for 7 years until she passed away at 13 years old. My pets are my family and I would treat your fur babies the same way. I also have 2 cats who are equally awesome. I am 59 and have had many kinds of breeds in my life that have required special types of care. I have been doing pet care for many years and it’s undoubtedly the most enjoyable job because I get to visit and play with your animals. What can be better than that! I am very responsible and most importantly reliable. Let me lighten your load and give you peace knowing your animals are in good hands. I am retired so I do not have a set schedule so I am available at any time you need. I have a lot of free time and can work around my home schedule easily I would follow whatever instructions you give, respect your home and animals and I am a very responsible pet owner. I would most definitely spend quality time with your pet. Pet care is my only job. I have been doing it for years so I have a super flexible schedule . I am available 7 days a week if my schedule permits . My pets are part of our family and are pretty spoiled. There are 3 people at home and my husband and I both work from home so they get a lot of attention . If I come to your home, I will respect your home, your animals, and I would treat your pet as if they were my own.
“Mary & Aaron and their lovely children are the needle in the haystack! I feel so thankful and grateful that I found them. Cassius is a rescue dog with severe separation anxiety, many behavioral traits and health issues, needs a special diet, is scared of unknown environments, streets, etc....but he is totally happy each time that is going to their house ! They opened the doors of their house and they also open their hearts to Cassius as if he was their own dog... and I really mean it ! Their adorable daughter Allison will wait in the morning for Cassius, when she is off school, full of energy to play, give him treats and do puzzles together, Cassius adores her. This is an extraordinary compassionate and loving family that will take care of your dogs as if they were their own. For the first time since I rescued Cassius, I can plan on traveling, study, go to work and move around worry-free about Cassius being take care. Cassius will continue going on regular basis to their house every week, it was a match made in heaven, Cassius loves them and they love him!”
“Skye was awesome from start to finish caring for our girl with short notice! My dog has a tough time with separation anxiety and Skye was great with helping her feel comfortable. Highly recommend!”
“Michael was absolutely great with my 2 month old lab. He was accommodating to my last minute day care need, and Beaver definitely enjoyed his time with him as he came home and went right for a nice nap. I will definitely be using him again for my little guy.”

“Christina was awesome! It was my first time using a sitter from the rove app and she couldn’t have made the experience any better. I felt completely comfortable leaving my pup there all day! She truly was amazing, she sent photos, videos, and updates throughout the day which made me believe my pup was in great hands and indeed she was. When I got to Christina’s house to pick up my dog she did not want to leave haha, will definitely be back!”
About: Hi my name is Micaela and one thing about me is that I adore animals! I love all animals so very much. I also feel that I work really well with them. I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life. Most of my dogs have been big dogs so I’m pretty good with handling any challenge that’s thrown my way. I’ve had more aggressive and protective dogs as well as laid back dogs and I’ve loved all. I’ve also worked at local shelters in my hometown and felt that that helped me gain more experience working with varying animals. I trained a couple of my dogs from a young age and though I’m not certified I felt that I did a pretty good job. I’m very patient and very genuine. I also watched my dogs whenever my parents would go on business trips which was quite often so I’d say this is the perfect job for me! I’m a college student but have majority of my classes online so my schedule is pretty clear. I love being outdoors and in nature so dog walking is right up my alley. I also love just chilling at home so I have no problem with that as well. I will always be respectful of others space especially if they are allowing me to stay in their home and watch their animals. I would say I’m a pretty neat person and don’t mind cleaning up if anything is needed. Genuinely it makes me happy to help others around the house if necessary. I used to babysit for a while and would always tidy up when I could find the time. I recently moved and now live with my grandparents and mom. We also have a chocolate lab who’s very energetic and loves to play. We have a fenced in yard and a conservation close to our house so there’s plenty of space for the animals. We love having dogs in the house.
“Izzy spent a wonderful day with Kathy and her dog Ziggy…..who is such a great boy! I felt so comfortable leaving my girl with them, Kathy is kind, compassionate and knows dogs! Her property is beautiful, safe and secure. We will for sure have more fun times here again. I think Izzy is in love with Ziggy and Kathy! ❤️”
“Sean and Dakota went above and beyond to make sure my puppy was happy and comfortable. They are always quick to respond and very kind and caring. It was very comforting to know my puppy was in such great hands while I was away. Highly recommend!”

About: I have been helping care for pets since I was a young child. I grew up with pets and pet responsibilities. The love that I have for my pets crosses over to the love that I will bring for your pet. Pet sitting is currently my primary focus. This allows me to have greater flexibility in my schedule and more time to take care of your pets. Great care and concern for your pet is emphasized as well as open communication with you while your pet is in my care. Your concerns are my concerns when it comes to the safety and care of your pets.
About: I’ve had my 16 year old senior cats since I was 7 years old, I have a ton of cat experience but I worked at a doggy daycare shortly so I can take care of dogs as well! I can also administer medication liquid form or pills. I’m also planning on going to Veterinary Technician school because my dream is to work with animals. I’m hoping to get a part time job soon but in the meantime or on my off days I plan to take care of animals. I’m currently not working so I have a lot of time in my schedule to care for dogs and cats while I job search. For taking care of cats my room is safe and can fit a litter box and food/water bowls. I can’t take in dogs because my cats get anxious around dogs , but I am happy to come to my clients home and do an overnight or drop in visits for dogs. I like when owners leave a list of everything for me just so I can make sure their pets have everything they need.

About: I have experience working as a full-time dogwalker and pet care provider for a local company, Let's Play Ruff, between 2019 and 2022. I'm currently a full-time employee at a daycare, but I'm looking for some side work. I have experience working with dogs and cats of all ages, administering medication, and basic dog training. I have a lot of practice with dog walking, and I am familiar with various handling techniques. I am a full-time employee at a daycare, but have a bit more flexibility due to the summer. My daycare isn't open on weekends, so I am fully available. Experienced pet care provider with trusted experience in childcare, pet care, dog walking, and house-sitting. Recognized for reliability and professionalism, I have maintained a loyal client base through strong relationships and exceptional care. I understand it can be scary to let strangers into your house and care for your pets, but I hope my references, background, and experience will give you confidence in me.

“I was nervous about going away because I have never left my dog for someone else to watch, especially for a week. Lorrie did a great job watching my pup and sending updates. I could tell he was well cared for and was happy with the experience”
“Ken is amazing with our Frenchie! Frankie ran to the car as fast as he could when we packed him up to go to Ken’s house. He came home looking healthy and very well taken care of. We highly recommend him but hope he doesn’t book up too much because we will definitely be back”
“Christen was awesome with our dog Marty. Very thoughtful and communicative. I know Marty had a great week while staying there. I would gladly ask Christen to help with Marty in the future.”
“Deena provides a warm and friendly environment with a huge enclosed yard perfect for pups of all kinds. She sent us pics at least once a day and kept us well informed about how our pup was doing. This was our first time using Deena and we will do so again!”
“Rick was great with our dog, Leo! He had an overnight stay and by the time we got him back the next day he was exhausted cause of all the fun he had running around on the farm! Rick was great with providing updates, I highly recommend!”
“I’m speechless! Shelleen is a godsend! I recently moved to the area and was nervous about trying a new sitter but she has exceeded all my expectations and my anxious dog was very comfortable and happy staying with her. I received lots of updates and advice and can’t wait to use her services again! Very professional, patient and accommodating to our needs.”
“We couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter. Fatima was patient, caring and reliable. We received updates regularly, giving us peace of mind while we were away that our dog was well cared for. Would definitely use her again!”
About: Hi! I’m Abbey — a lifelong animal lover who grew up with three dogs of my own. I’ve also helped several families, neighbors, and friends with walks, feedings, and check-ins. I’m reliable, caring, and always make sure pets feel happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my routine! I’m available on weekends and during mornings and evenings throughout the week. Whether it’s a quick walk, feeding, or drop-in visit, I’m happy to make sure your pets get the care and attention they need. When caring for pets in their own home, I always follow the owner’s instructions and routines to keep things consistent and comfortable. I make sure pets get fresh water, food, walks, playtime, and plenty of affection. I treat every home with respect and every pet like my own.
“Maui had the absolute best time with JoEllen and her family! JoEllen sent so many photos and videos, which I absolutely loved! Maui had the best time! He loved going for the long walk on the beach and from all photos, I can tell he was having a blast playing in JoEllen's backyard! Maui will definitely be visiting again!”
“Dawn was amazing. Our dog is a puppy and she treated him as if he was her own. She sent a ton of updates and kept us in the loop at all times. We would definitely use her services again!”
“Mary and Aaron are genuinely good people, they took wonderful care of our labradoodle Stella for a week. Mary sent me photos which made my day and just reinforced my comfort level of leaving her with someone for week. They have a wonderful, shaded big backyard that is an oasis for dogs. I highly Recommend Mary and Aaron???”
“Nervana is really sweet and understanding. She took care of our dog while we were on vacations. She is accommodating and easy to work with. Highly recommend her services. Thank you”
“Meghan and Rob were absolutely wonderful. I had never left my Maverick with anyone outside the family and from the meet and greet through the entire stay I felt comfortable and like my dog would be well taken care of even with his history of being reactive. I received pictures and videos and they even took TV request. I would highly recommend Meghan.”
“Seriously cannot recommend Erick enough. My two pups felt right at home in his house and got along so well with his two dogs. He’s extremely reliable, quick to respond and also sends daily updates so you know your babies are doing okay. I will be booking them again for future vacations and I recommend you do the same!”
“What a relief to find Vincent who was able to board our German Shepherd mix while we went away for almost a week. He sent us updates and we were happy our pet wasn’t alone. He was safe and got along with their beautiful lab mix-Scarlett. Thank you Vincent!”
About: In 2025 I decided to go full time and start my own pet care business. I am fully bonded & insured! I love all animals but the anxious ones are really where I shine. I will meet your pet where they’re at. I’m Canine + Feline CPR & first aid certified, I have previous experience from working in a grooming salon (not a groomer though!) and am serious about continuing education— I’ve pursued additional certifications as well as a dog training apprenticeship and continue to do so. Additionally, I run an in-home daycare for small dogs. I have an employee who helps me with this and is trained to the same standards. Please reach out with any questions. Since making the full-time pivot to pet care, my schedule now has the flexibility fit around the needs of your pets. For walks, our walk doesn't officially "START" until your dogs paws hit the pavement! Your dog gets the full 30 minutes with no corners cut. This is true for all of my services. I will care for them like they are my own dogs— their safety is my top priority, and I know how difficult the transition can be for pups when their parents are gone and will do everything in my power to make that easier for them.
